Since the 1950s, China has built dams large and small at a rapid pace to generate electricity, tame floods, provide irrigation for fields and drinking water for cities. however, they seem to be making the flooding worse. The evidence is that in recent years floods have become more and more serious. many other dams simply become redundant as rivers dry up, reservoirs fill up or they are replaced by dams built upstream. The dams are doing more harm than good, said Wang Yongchen, founder of Green Earth Volunteers - a Beijing-based NGO. According to Chinese local media, more than 80 irrigation projects have been built in the Beijing area alone. In the 2010s, the river dried up an average of 316 days a year. #news #china #chinaflood2022 #threegorgesdam #3gorgesdam #chinadam #damcollapse
